Eight Months!

Wow, eight months of life have passed since "L" had his birthday!  Who would have thought that the 100 degree day would yield a day of a late spring snowstorm -- eight months later??  "L" has been busy mastering all types of tricks.  His eyes are constantly on "K," which means, that he is learning things much faster!  Here's the latest:

*Battled his first ear infection.
*Crawling like crazy!!  The "first" crawl occurred on March 10.
*Pulling himself up around the tables and chairs.
*Dumping the box of toys.
*Beginning to eat crunchy crackers and cereal pieces.
*Got stuck under a chair.
*Can put himself to sleep, when placed in bed -- most nights.  Still plenty of wake up calls to contend with though!  I think he was up 4 or 5 times last night.

I look forward to warmer days so that we can enjoy stroller rides outside and pack the socks away for the season.  I have decided that socks really do not stay on a baby's feet!  I get lots of practice putting them back on throughout the day =)
